George’s Cake Pairings: Coconut and Lime Cake Recipe

Since we’ve just launched two coffees from a brand new origin, Rwanda, I thought it was the perfect time to pair cake with coffee! Not that I need a great deal of persuading to whip out the ol’ mixer and put my baking apron on…

For me, Rwandan coffee is all about great blackcurrant, blackberry, and citrus flavours, so I’m pretty confident this coconut and lime cake recipe is like butter to toast; it just fits.

Another scrumptious looking recipe for my next coffee break, a giant bounty bar cake just sounds amazing. Some people are surprised by the pairing of coffee and coconut but it’s actually a lovely thing and I can see this going really well with the citrus flavours of your chosen Rwanda coffee. Lots of coffee shops are even starting to offer coconut milk as a dairy-free alternative in their coffees, and coconut extract also makes for a delicious flavouring in coffee too. I reckon you could even combine all three – coffee, coconut and cake – in one to make another tasty cake to go with your afternoon coffee.

You’re definitely not going to hear any complaints from me on that front. George’s recipe was really great when we got a chance to try it in the office – I’d really recommend giving it a go if you feel like baking at some point!
